We travel with a Yamaha Zuma 125 Great for campsite supply runs and exploring back roads.

Or, be super cool on the road with the new Honda Monkey! Now that they've been out for a while Im starting to see used ones for $3k on CL. The only issue is going two-up on the bike and they haven't come out with a rear seat/passenger peg option. Although, I've heard the rear subframe is the same as the Grom and you can add their passenger pegs and a custom rear seat.

Sweet! Was the passenger seat optional or custom? I’ve been eyeballing the new 125 looks nice with the disk brakes. Did you ever come across one with the oversized rear sprocket? When I was 13 my Dad bought me a Sport 50, then a Super 90, after that a 160 Scrambler, great bikes and memories.

The passenger seat is called a "buddy" seat, and was an option.
One of the two bikes I brought back did have the overlay sprocket.
With it, the things are absolute mountain goats, but useless on the street.

I'm in BC Canada .....while we can't modify a motorcycle on the otherhand I think it is the only place in North America that still allows people to legally change (with engineer and mechanical inspections) the GVWR of a vehicle.

Many US states, Idaho included, the registered/licensed max weight holds more weight than GVWR, by a long shot.
So changing GVWR really isn't a concern. You simply register the vehicle appropriately. But it is only sub-rating as far as I know, nothing above GVWR.
Many businesses sub-rate trucks, say, register a 30k truck for 25,999 to allow anyone to drive it (no CDL required)
